Section 8 landlording, with the paper trail built in
Housing-choice-voucher landlording has a bookkeeping shape most software ignores: two payers per lease. The housing authority's HAP payment arrives on its schedule; the tenant portion arrives on another; and your records need to show both cleanly — especially when a portion changes after an annual recertification.
LetsGoLandlord's ledger was built for split and partial payments from day one. Every deposit — HAP or tenant — matches to the lease and shows in one running balance, so 'who actually owes what' is a glance, not an investigation.
Two payers, one clean ledger
The bank matcher recognizes recurring housing-authority deposits and tenant payments separately and applies both to the same lease ledger. When the tenant portion changes mid-year, you adjust the charge and the running balance stays truthful — no spreadsheet surgery.
Inspection-ready records
Maintenance tickets carry photos, timestamps, and a full timeline — exactly the trail you want when an HQS inspection or a dispute asks what you fixed and when. Move-in/move-out inspections with room-by-room photos live alongside the lease.
Renewals and recertifications on a calendar that watches itself
Lease-end dates extracted from your actual leases feed the renewal autopilot. Add recertification dates as tasks and nothing sneaks up on you.
Program rules vary by housing authority. This page describes bookkeeping features, not program guidance — your PHA's requirements control.
Frequently asked questions
Can it track the HAP payment and tenant portion separately?
Yes — both match to the same lease with distinct payment records, and the ledger shows each against the total rent charge. Partial payments were a first-class design requirement, not an afterthought.
What happens when the tenant portion changes after recertification?
Update the rent split on the lease; charges going forward reflect it and history stays intact. The running balance never lies about the past.
Does it handle abatements?
You can adjust or void charges with a note, which keeps the ledger honest during an abatement period and preserves the trail of what changed and why.
Who built this?
A licensed Florida real estate broker who owns and self-manages rentals, including voucher tenancies — the split-payment ledger exists because he needed it.
